The Automatic Capacitive Sensing Height Follower developed by Kern Electronics & Lasers, Inc. is one of the key elements when laser cutting mild steel and stainless steel for your custom metal cutting project. A sensor senses the capacitance from the end of the isolated cutting tip to the metal being cut. This information is fed into a Kern Height Follower Controller. The gap from the metal being cut and the cutting tip can be adjusted until a desired gap is obtained. The Kern Height Follower will then maintain that gap over the metal even if the metal has any distortion in the metal and maintain the proper focusing point.

A 150 watt laser is installed for cutting mild steel up to .090″, stainless steel up to .070″ and a 400 watt laser is installed for cutting mild steel up to .125″, stainless steel up to .100″.
